Show HN: wazero compiler ported to 4 new OSes

7 points · ncruces · 7 days ago

Release 1.8.2 of wazero, the zero dependency WebAssembly runtime for Go, brings the amd64 compiler to 4 new OSes: NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, illumos and Solaris.

The compiler also supports Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows, on amd64 and arm64.

This didn't require any changes to the compiler, just enabling it after setting up tests to validate that it already worked.

Now the HN hook: noticeably absent is OpenBSD, which I failed to get working, even after taking W^X into account (we already had that for arm64 on macOS).

If you wanna help, please drop us a note!
